Directions
Shake well before using.
Remove carbon from filter. Add 4 drops per gallon or 5 ml (1 tsp) per 25 gallons of water to be treated. Treat every other day for a total of three treatments. Raising the aquarium temperature to above 80 degrees will increase the effectiveness of the treatment for some species. Do not exceed temperatures of 84 degrees and always ensure adequate aeration is provided for the fish, particularly when treating at higher temperatures.
For reef tanks and aquariums with invertebrates, the dosage should be adjusted to two treatments of two drops per gallon or 5 ml (1 tsp) per 50 gallons 12 hours apart. Treat every other day for a total of 6 treatments (2 treatments per day).
Note: Consult a veterinarian or fish expert for assistance in diagnosis of disease causing organisms and treatment options.
